I got the wrong end of the stick and ran with it, so here I am stumbling. Entirely my fault; mea culpa, as perhaps Mary would say. Also in the last issue I pointed out that there was a portrait of Bothwell of which I had ben unaware. As a result I inquired about it and received a reply from Zilla Oddy, Museum & Gallery Assistant: “… the portrait of James Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell … is on display at Mary, Queen of Scots’ Visitor Centre in Jedburgh. Unfortunately we don’t have any information regarding its provenance and there is no signature on the portrait. All I can tell you is that is oil on board and that the title on the painting reads ‘James Hepburn Earl of Bothwell Ano. 1565’.” Perhaps we could encourage an art historian to assess this! On the website of the Mary Queen of Scots House at Jedburgh (http://www.marie-stuart.co.uk/Castles/MaryHouse.htm) it states that the death- mask they have was found in Peterborough where Mary was first buried by the late Dr Charles Hepburn of Glasgow. Someone asked “Who is this Dr Charles Hepburn and why does he think the mask he discovered is actually that of Mary’s?” Can anyone shed any light on this? The Treasurer has asked me to remind people that subscriptions are now due and can be paid by cheque made payable to ‘The Marie Stuart Society’ and sent to him at 1 Armit Place, St. Andrews KY16 8RE or via Paypal to [email protected]. All payments must be in sterling. The AGM of the Society agreed the subscription rates for the calendar year 2017 at £15 as a full member, £20 for a married couple or those in a civil partnership, and a concession rate of £2 for those in full time education. On a lighter note I have been searching for appropriate pictures to include in the Journal and I found some from the Metropolitan Museum of Art; these are not on show at the time of writing, so you needn’t rush to New York to see the originals. Note that there is to be an exhibition concerning the ‘Rough Wooing’ from 15 July to 17 October 2017 at the John Gray Centre, 15 Lodge Street, Haddington EH41 3DX. I shall certainly attend and wondered if anyone might want to make it into a Society event where we could enjoy it together, discuss it, and generally socialise. I had already intended to write an article for the Journal about these events, so this will help me focus on particular aspects. Is anyone intending to attend the ‘Celebration of the 450th Anniversary of the Coronation of James VI’ in Stirling? Unfortunately it clashes with my son’s - 5 - wedding so I am looking for someone to report on it if possible. I continue to encourage members to contribute to the feature I introduced last issue, ‘Why I am a Member’. The deadline for submissions to be included in the next Journal is 4 September 2017 including any information you may see about news items, events, or new research concerning our Mary. For the February Journal, the date is 1 January 2018. Once again I’d like to remind people of our online presence which consists of our own website, http://www.maryqueenofscots.co.uk, and a Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/MarieStuartSociety. Any member willing to volunteer to create and manage a Twitter account? Enjoy your Journal. Best wishes and thanks, Jerry Thoughts of the President Well I’ve completed my first year as President now, with a Society AGM and both a Scottish Branch and an English
